******This is a sticky post*******
Using a plastic storage bags is a common occurrence in my house. We use them for a lot of things because they are convenient and easy to store. No bulky baskets or containers to clutter up your space. Instead I’ll put things in a storage bag and forget about it. I reuse the bags a lot when I can.
Some of the ways I’ve used plastic storage bags are:
In the kitchen:
Marinate meat and vegetables overnight.
Store spices or dry ingredients.
For sandwiches and sides in lunches
For storage:
Office supplies such as: pens, pencils, crayons, and colored pencils.
dog food
Traveling- toothpaste and toothbrush, and other personal products
Make up
I love the zip bags they are so convenient. I love the fact that I can use one storage bag for 2 different things. We used them for sandwich and chips in a bag, to marinate vegetables and meat. I used one side of the bag for my make up and another for my travel brush and comb. I put salad in one side of the bag and salad dressing in the other side.
Here are some facts about zip:
zip bags are made with 20% less plastic than other baggies
They come in three sizes: Snack/ Sandwich, Quart and Gallon
All bags come with 3 zipper closures
You can buy them online for $3.99 plus shipping or at
stores for $2.99.
Now for the giveaway:
One lucky Winner will receive a 3 pack of zip bags that includes the Snack/Sandwich, Storage/Quart box and the Storage/Gallon box.

I think these would be great for left overs. I sometimes save chicken and a small amount of veggies for the next day and it would be great. Also I can see this working on travel, Putting the general stuff in one section and the really leak able in the other. How about candy two different types. Also great would be for turnover and cinnamon rolls. I make homemade and freeze them. it would be great to have a separate dept for the sugar icing. so you could heat up the pastry ( cut the bag) then slightly heat the sugar stuff an d pour over fresh
I like econbags on fb (name Jan Richardson). I’d use these bags for food storage and outings.
I would use these for my husband’s lunches. I like them on facebook
